Can't use Two My Passport Essential at the same time

Howdy,

 Yup, same thing happened with me so here is the quick answer.

Just check to see if the disk is formatted, the pasports useually are NTFS which is what you want for 99 99/100% of the time. To chck that just drag a file on the disk and list it or open it.

TO SEE BOTH DISKS:

Control panel > Computer Management > disk Management

Assign another dive number like J or P to one of the disks. (one of them is probably F:). It’s some where in there in disk management under actions. the drive number will switch right away you will see it under “Computer” listed with the new drive number.

In the Disk Management the second disk will show “Off Line” with a signature error, Just Click it to put it online and you are done.

It should say [Simple Basic NTFS Healthy (Primary Partition) 931.48 GB] for a 1TB drive

Right Click on the drive Icon under "Computers and clik properties and put a “Name” on both of the disks so you don’t go “CRAZY”, OK?

Good Luck!   :-})
